5views.com

I guess I should start by explaining the site and my handle.

This site, 5views.com, is the result of a lack of outlets for conservative views in Tacoma, Pierce County and Western Washington. The name is from two things: 1) a small, relatively unknown area in Tacoma that barely qualifies as a neighborhood by most people’s standards; and 2) the symbolism that conservative views are universal and even exist in this little enclave on the left coast.

My handle, “Republican By Default” represents my frustrations with the Washington State Republican Party (WSRP) and their inability to represent the views of real conservatives. The handle simply means this, “I am a Republican because I won’t waste my vote on third party candidates and I won’t damage this area any further by voting for a Democrat. So even though the WSRP doesn’t represent my views, I will likely vote for their candidates because the alternatives suck worse.”

Upcoming blog entries will spell all of this our further, but for now I’ll just say that conservatives are alive and well and living in Tacoma, Pierce County and Western Washington.
